Luck be a Lady, Don't Die by Robert Randisi

Rat Pack Mystery #2, OK to read as stand-alone. Las Vegas, 1960. Start spreading the word, Frank Sinatra, Dino, Sammy and the rest of the Hollywood Rat Pack are in Las Vegas for the premier of "Ocean's Eleven". Sinatra has divorced Ava Gardner, is engaged to Juliet Prowse and asks his pal Eddie Gianelli, who works at the Sands as a pit boss, to help him with a little problem with a missing girl friend. Then the bodies start to pile up. Easy, breezy, very entertaining mystery with lots of name-dropping and Vegas history. I really liked it, 4 stars.

Hello everyone!

I'm new in this group! I would be glad to share with you my love for crime novels!
The last one I finished was "In Bitter Chill" by Sarah Ward.
I would probably give it a 2/5 stars.
I might start reading book no.2 "A Deadly Thaw".
Has anyone read the second one?

In my case, I think it's because I don't turn on my tv until evening and I've also been known to stay up around the clock to finish a book I particularly like.

Broken Promise by Linwood Barclay

There are bad things happening in Promise Falls, New York, including a woman's murder.

There's an interesting array of characters in this complex story, which is the beginning of a trilogy.

3.5 stars

currently reading Elise Sax's book 1 of Matchmaker Mysteries series 'An Affair to Dismember'

Deck the Hounds by David Rosenfelt

Andy Carpenter #18, OK to read as stand-alone. Andy defends a homeless man accused of murder. Light, humorous mystery-legal thriller. Very well done, more complex than most in this series. 4 stars.

[Tone]

I'm currently reading Case Histories by Kate Atkinson. The Jackson Brodie-series has been on my TBR-list for ages, but now I've finally started the first book. It's great - in fact much better than I'd expected.

[Thomas]

If you like like legal mysteries, try this series. My 4 star review.

So my current read is The Hypnotist’s Love Story by Liane Moriarty... now I have read another book of hers and wasn’t into it but so far I am loving this and I have to admit her characters and story writing are enthralling... won’t go into it too much don’t want to jinx this.

Deprivation

by: Roy Freirich

Excessively florid prose distracts from an interesting take on the effects of mass hysteria and epidemics.

I envy you just starting, Tone. I re-read the first few books recently before getting to the latest one, and I enjoyed them just as much the next time around. She's an excellent writer, and I love her characters.

Yes Patty, I agree that this is the kind of book that can (and perhaps should) be read more than once.

Somebody’s Daughter, seventh book in the Natalie Ward series by Carol Wyer.
This book rises the series in quality, with attention given to a larger ensemble cast à la Ed McBain. The author also made a lot of field research on the main theme of the book, and it shows. Highly recommended.
